There is hope.

 1.)  Prime Minister of Canada Pierre Trudeau promised that the National Parks will be always be owned by the citizens of Canada. House of Commons Debates Ottawa February 24, 1970: The Hon. Jack Marshall, (Humber-St. Georges-St. Barbe) Liberal: "National parks are a national domain set aside by the Parliament of Canada for all the people..." 

House of Commons Debates Ottawa February 17, 1970. MP John Leroy Skoberg (Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan.) New Democratic Party: "...If we wish to retain our identity and have truly national parks it is high time we kept these national parks in perpetuity.."

2.)  Prime Minister Louis St-Laurent said that the Experimental Farm will be an open space in perpetuity.

3.)  The government of Canada is reclaiming the Quebec Bridge from CN Rail (Bill Gates): House of Commons Debates Ottawa March 24, 2010: MP Brian Jean: "Madam Speaker, I am very pleased to speak to Motion 423, regarding the acquisition of of the Quebec Bridge from the Canadian National Railway. Motion No. 423 'That, in the opinion of the House, the government should purchase the Pont de Quebec for one dollar and commit to quickly finishing the repair work so as to respect its importance as a historical monument and a vital transportation link for the Quebec City region."

4.)  The RCMP image has been reclaimed from the Walt Disney Corporation.

5.)  An anonymous benefactor bought the Kingston Dry Dock National Historic Site of Canada and the Marine Museum of the Great Lakes will reopen:

Kingston Dry Dock, 55 Ontario Street.
6.)  2067 Greenbelt Vision Statement. "The Greenbelt will forever protect natural systems, agriculture and opportunities for outdoor recreation that will inspire Canadians and contribute to the sustainability and quality of life in Canada's Capital Region. The Greenbelt will remain in the public domain." (Page 53/196.)
House of Commons Debates Ottawa September 16, 2009. The Hon. Steven Blaney (Levis, Quebec.) Conservative: "...Other properties found in the Greenbelt are Commissioners Park where there is a display of over 100,000 tulips." The park is located at Preston and the Queen Elizabeth Driveway.

7.)  Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reopened the Kitsilano Coast Guard Station in Vancouver, BC and the Frelighsburg Experimental Farm in Eastern Quebec.

8.)  Senate Bill S-203 is saving federal properties opposite Parliament Hill from demolition and facadism. That includes the buildings on the northern half of the Sparks Street Mall that the Trudeau government expropriated in 1973---to prevent the construction of condos and to save the historic edifices. The Greber Report of 1950, page 337/395. "The south side of Wellington Street should be dignified and be treated as a continuous monument background to the north side. It should be subject to very strict height restrictions."
